The official description of THE WOMEN is as follows: "Be careful what you say in private. It could become a movie. Some gossip overheard by Clare Boothe Luce in a nightclub powder room inspired her Broadway hit that's wittily adapted for the screen in The Women. Cukor directs an all-female cast (of more than 135 actresses) in this catty tale of battling and bonding that paints its claws Jungle Red and shreds the excesses of pampered Park Avenue princesses. Crawford, Russell, Fontaine, Boland and Goddard are among the array of husband snatchers, snitches and lovelorn ladies."
